Answer:
h(t) = -5t + 500
Step-by-step explanation:
At time zero, the elevator is at 500 ft.
At time 5 seconds, the elevator is at 475 ft.
The difference in height is -25 ft.
The elevator traveled -25 ft (25 ft down) in 5 seconds, so it travels at a speed of 5 ft per second. Since it is traveling down, its speed is -5 ft/sec.
For each second of travel, it loses 5 ft of height.
h(t) = -5t + 500
No Alan did not break even
Alan incured a loss of 6.25 %
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
Alan bought two bikes
He sold one to Beth for $300 taking a 25% loss
He also sold one to Greta for $300 making a 25% profit
When a person sells two similar items, one at a gain of say x%, and the other at a loss of x%, then the seller always incurs a loss
Which is given as:

Here, x = 25

Thus the loss percentage is 6.25 %
I would tell you but the answer wont show sorry. :)

Answer:
x = 39
Step-by-step explanation:
The Pythagorean theorem tells you the sum of the squares of the sides of a right triangle is the square of the hypotenuse.
x² +80² = 89²
x² = 89² -80² = 7921 -6400 = 1521
x = √1521
x = 39
You would have to divide 2 by 9 I think and that would equal 0.2222
